RNA-seq technology was used to profile the liver transcriptome of 6 extremely high feed efficiency pigs and 6 extremely low feed efficiency pigs to identify candidate genes and pathways that significa
228 spots (171 unique genes) allow the discrimination between the five lines. These genes were identified as differentially expressed from one line against the others or were identified in the sPLS-DA
Comprehensive transcriptomic survey of the pig (Sus scrofa) may lead to a better understanding of mechanisms of tissue specialization that underlie economic traits of this species and accelerate its u
70 pathways enriched to explain the biologically diversity of five pig breeds. These pathways have been identified with the free software GeneCodis. These pathways concerned the KEGG (Kyoto Encycloped
